"Then what do you suggest we do? Should we just stand by and do nothing, watching him help all those quasi-Immortal Kings transcend their tribulations? If Immortal Kings become rampant, the transcendent status of our respective clans will cease to exist!" Yuwen Xiong said urgently.
Such is the way of the world. When Immortal Kings were few, they held the power to dominate the entire Sixth Star Ruins. But as more and more Immortal Kings emerge, their value diminishes, and the power in their hands gradually shrinks.
To put it exaggeratedly, if everyone were an Immortal King, it would be as if no one were an Immortal King.
The title of Immortal King would become meaningless.
"Given the current situation, there is only one method to ensure absolute success," Ling Yunxiao said.
"What method?"
"Hurry deep into the Feixian Forbidden Zone to seek Immortal Fate and the Great Dao Treasure Herb!
The Great Dao Treasure Herb contains the laws of the Great Dao. By consuming it, we can comprehend the Eternal Dao, thereby breaking through to the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm in one fell swoop. Once that happens, the outcome will be decided."
Upon hearing this, everyone's eyes lit up. After all, the purpose of their journey was to find the Great Dao Treasure Herb, to gain a better chance at comprehending the Eternal Dao and breaking through to Great Luo Golden Immortal. This plan served both purposes perfectly.
"However, the Feixian Forbidden Zone is fraught with dangers. Even if we join forces, it would be difficult to find the Great Dao Treasure Herb in a short time, let alone refine it and achieve a breakthrough. I'm afraid that by the time we find it, that Gu Qingfeng will have already reached the depths of the Feixian Forbidden Zone. We can't very well attempt a breakthrough right in front of our enemy, can we?" Jiang Li frowned.
At this moment, Ling Yunxiao silently took out a leather map from his robe.
"This is a route map of the Feixian Forbidden Zone. By following the route marked here, we can reach the depths of the forbidden zone ahead of others, obtain the Great Dao Treasure Herb in advance, and break through to Great Luo."
Seeing the map, the group was instantly overjoyed.
"Brother Ling, where did you get this map?"
"Compiled from the experiences of those who entered the Feixian Forbidden Zone in past generations. With the wisdom of our predecessors, our path will be unimpeded," Ling Yunxiao said calmly.
"Then let's set off without delay."
......
Three days later.
Gu Qingfeng and his companions were walking through an ancient forest. Over these three days, although they hadn't encountered another supreme treasure like the Seven Aura Divine Water, they had found some fine immortal herbs, making the trip worthwhile.
On this day, the three of them proceeded as usual. Qian Yun, like a loyal underling, tirelessly cleared the path ahead without complaint.
Suddenly, a glow emanated from Qian Yun's chest, drawing everyone's attention.
He was startled for a moment, then pulled out a communication jade talisman.
With a tap of his finger, a male voice immediately came from the talisman.
"Fellow Daoist Qian, come quickly to the northwest corner, seventy thousand li away! We've discovered the ruins of the Feixian Sect!"
Hearing this, Qian Yun was overjoyed. He turned to Gu Qingfeng and said, "Lord Gu, the one who just spoke is my close friend, the Holy Son of the Ancient Orchid Holy Sect, Chu Batian.
He has found the ancient ruins of the Feixian Sect. There might be ancient treasures inside. Shall we go?"
"Feixian Sect?" Gu Qingfeng was slightly puzzled.
Qian Yun explained, "I once read in ancient texts that billions of years ago, what is now called the Feixian Forbidden Zone was originally the Feixian Sect. Legend says the Feixian Sect was incredibly powerful back then, dominating the Fallen Star Abyss. But for some unknown reason, the entire sect was slaughtered overnight, and the area became filled with strange, sinister energies, turning it into a haunted zone.
Over time, it gradually became known as the Feixian Forbidden Zone.
Now that the Feixian Sect's ruins have been discovered, there might be treasures from the sect inside."
Gu Qingfeng was somewhat intrigued upon hearing this.
"Let's go, then. We'll take a look."
With that, the three of them set off.
Several hours later, Gu Qingfeng and the others arrived at a vast, boundless plain. And high above the plain,
an ancient hall hovered majestically amidst the clouds in the sky. At first glance, it resembled the legendary Hall of Numinous Majesty.
The surrounding space was saturated with spatial forces, with occasional pitch-black spatial fissures appearing, as if giant, gaping abyssal mouths had opened in the sky.
On the plain below stood a burly man dressed in crimson robes. His face was resolute and carried a hint of wildness.
Seeing Qian Yun arrive, he was greatly pleased and quickly waved them over.
But upon clearly seeing Gu Qingfeng beside him, his joy turned to ecstasy, his expression like that of someone meeting their idol.
"Lord... Lord Gu! You... you're here too!? Qian Yun, what's going on? How are you with Lord Gu?" Chu Batian asked excitedly.
Qian Yun recounted with some pride how he had met Gu Qingfeng, making Chu Batian envious. Chu Batian looked at Gu Qingfeng, hesitating as if he also wished to pledge his allegiance.
Perhaps fearing it would be too forward, he didn't voice it immediately. Instead, he changed the subject: "Lord Gu, I discovered these Feixian Sect ruins by accident as well. This place was previously hidden within the void, but recently the space here has become increasingly unstable, revealing a corner, which is how I found this treasure trove.
However, the Feixian Sect's mountain-protecting formation is still active. Though worn by time, it's not something I can breach alone. That's why I contacted Fellow Daoist Qian. I never imagined you would come too.
This is perfect! With you here, that paltry mountain-protecting formation is nothing."
"Oh, is that so?" Gu Qingfeng said nonchalantly, rather enjoying the flattery.
Chu Batian hurriedly added, "Lord Gu, your strength is witnessed by all. If you could break the formation this time, I won't take a single treasure from inside. I only ask to be allowed to follow by your side."
Qian Yun beside him quickly chimed in, "Lord Gu, me too."
"Heh heh heh..." Gu Qingfeng suddenly burst into wild laughter.
His laughter sent an inexplicable chill down the spines of the two men.
"Why does the Lord laugh?"
"You're both being so... accommodating. It almost makes this Emperor feel bad about killing you."
Hearing this, their expressions changed slightly. They forced smiles and said, "What does the Lord mean by that?"
Gu Qingfeng looked down at them with a condescending gaze and said calmly, "Do you really think this Emperor can't see through your clumsy acting? Daring to show off your amateur skills before this Emperor? Do you not know this is exactly how I made my name?
You," he glanced at Qian Yun, "first pretended to get close to gain my trust, then had Chu Batian send a message, pretending to accidentally discover ruins to lure me here.
If I'm not mistaken, this so-called mountain-protecting formation is a trap. Attempting to break it would surely trigger a backlash from the formation."
The two men were instantly shocked and horrified. They never imagined Gu Qingfeng would be so sharp, detecting the trap in advance.
But they also knew they absolutely could not admit to it now. After all, the plan hadn't been executed yet; no signs had been revealed. Everything was hidden in their minds. If they didn't admit it, could something that hadn't happened yet count?
It's like intending to kill someone—you've only bought the knife, you haven't acted yet. Does that count as a crime?
"Lord, please see clearly! We truly harbor no ill intent. We only hold reverence for you. How could we possibly harm you?"
"That's right, Lord Gu! I, Chu Batian, swear to the heavens, these ruins were truly discovered by chance. I contacted Fellow Daoist Qian because my own strength was insufficient. I never even imagined you would be here!"
Seeing the utterly sincere expressions on the two men's faces, Gu Qingfeng let out a proud, arrogant laugh: "Heh heh heh... So, you're saying this Emperor was mistaken?"
The two men nodded frantically: "Yes, yes, yes, you misunderstood."
Gu Qingfeng's smile vanished abruptly, demonic light swirling in his eyes: "What! You dare to say this Emperor was wrong?
This Emperor's word is divine law, the one and only truth in this world!
Whoever in this world dares to say this Emperor is wrong shall die!
You two insolent wretches who know no respect, die!!"
